Manufacturer Narrative
|
The customer declined the option to have their glidescope avl video baton 3-4 returned to verathon for evaluation.Since the device was not returned to verathon for evaluation, the cause could not be determined.Review of the complaint history for the reported video baton serial number "(b)(4)" did not identify any previous complaints reported to verathon.Trending analysis for the glidescope avl video batons does not identify any trends exceeding acceptable limits.Review of the system risk assessment confirmed that the risk associated with the hazardous scenario has been adequately captured and characterized.Upon review of the device history for the serial number "(b)(4)" it was determined that the device was manufactured on august 22, 2017 and is past the two (2) year expected product life as outlined in the glidescope operations and maintenance manual (omm).Due to the age of the device and the fact that there are no repairs available for the video baton, the customer was advised to replace their glidescope avl video baton 3-4.At this time, the cause of the reported issue could not be determined; however, it is likely that the age of the device, five (5) years and five (5) months may have caused or contributed to the event.Corrective action is not required at this time.Verathon will continue to monitor for trends.
